What is a TV proximity sensor?
A TV proximity sensor detects activity or distance in the space around a television. For child screen safety, the useful application is recognising when a child enters a configured viewing boundary.

Balaksh use case
Balaksh is designed as a camera-free TV proximity sensor for children. When the proximity condition persists, the device can provide a cue and, in supported setups, a control response such as pausing video playback.
Why this can be useful
The sensor can make a family rule more consistent. Instead of a parent needing to watch the child continuously, the device can provide a repeatable reminder. Parents still decide the household rule and remain responsible for supervision.
Compatibility matters
A proximity sensor and TV-control workflow may behave differently across television operating systems, streaming apps, set-top boxes and connection methods. Balaksh should therefore be tested with the specific TV setup before purchase.

Why families are considering Balaksh
Less reminding.
More consistency.
Balaksh is not another screen-time app. It is a physical smart sensor for the TV environment, designed to make a viewing-distance boundary easier for a child to follow.
✓Camera-free approach. No child profiles or face recognition.
✓Clear feedback loop. Sense proximity → cue a response → encourage stepping back.
✓Parent-friendly goal. Support a habit without turning every viewing session into a negotiation.
✓Honest positioning. Balaksh is a behaviour-support device, not a medical treatment or guarantee against eye problems.
